“Working within the limits of the medium forces us to change our own limits. Improvisation is not breaking with forms and limitations just to be 'free,' but using them as the very means of transcending ourselves.” MeanFormForceLimitsMediumsLimitationImprovisationTranscendingVery Mean Book:Free Play: Improvisation in Life and Art Source: Free Play: Improvisation in Life and Art
“Each of the parts of philosophy is a philosophical whole, a circle rounded and complete in itself. In each of these parts, however, the philosophical Idea is found in a particular specificality or medium. The single circle, because it is a real totality, bursts through the limits imposed by its special medium, and gives rise to a wider circle. The whole of philosophy in this way resembles a circle of circles. The Idea appears in each single circle, but, at the same time, the whole Idea is constituted by the system of these peculiar phases, and each is a necessary member of the organisation.” WayGivingIdeasRealPhilosophyWholeFoundSpecialParticularLimitsMembersPhilosophicalCirclesMediumsPeculiarPhasesOrganisationTotality Author:Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

“Unlike Freud, Jung did not believe that a dream is a mask for a meaning already known but deceitfully withheld from the consciousmind. In his view, dreams were communication, ideas expressed not always straightforwardly, but in the best way possible within the limits of the medium. Dreaming, in Jung's psychology, is a constructive process.” WayBelieveIdeasDreamProcessViewsKnownPsychologyCommunicationLimitsBest WayMediumsMaskConstructiveJung Author:Jeremy Campbell

“Whether this vast homogeneous expanse of isotropic matter is fitted not only to be a medium of physical interaction between distant bodies, and to fulfil other physical functions of which perhaps we have as yet no conception, but also to constitute the material organism of beings exercising functions of life and mind as high or higher than ours are at present is a question far transcending the limits of physical speculation.” MindMatterBodyMaterialsHigherExerciseLimitsFunctionMediumsConceptionInteractionOrganismsSpeculationTranscendingExpanseHomogeneous Book:Scientific Papers Source: Scientific Papers
“Sound as medium has an incredible elasticity. So, of course, it is tempting for artists of other fields to try something with sounds. Why not?
